Statement of StemExpress concerning August 21st court ruling

StemExpress is pleased that the judge concluded it is likely The Center for Medical Progress and David Daleiden violated California’s criminal law prohibiting the illegal recording of private conversations. In doing so, the court refused to accept Mr. Daleiden’s self-serving testimony, stating it was “less worthy of credence.” In concluding that CMP and Daleiden likely committed crimes, the judge also rejected defendants’ claim that StemExpress broke the law, finding their assertions to be a mere “ideological conviction.” StemExpress will continue to pursue its claims for damages and to hold defendants accountable for their illegal conduct. StemExpress disagrees with the court’s conclusion today that a preliminary injunction is not an appropriate remedy in this case and is considering options, including an appeal.
